jono2009 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Hate him or love him this guy has been a remarkable coach to this franchise. More than a handful of NorthWest Division banners, 2 Presidents Trophies, and brought his team within one win of hoisting Lord Stanleys Cup. His record with the team will be hard to beat. 313-170-57 Did he drive you nuts at times? Sure. Did we always agree on his line juggling? No. The goalie scenario ever make sense? No. But if this is it as Coach Alain Vigneault in the Canucks organization I want to say thanks for 7 great years. Some funny times with him as head coach that I have enjoyed watching. Great guy. Great Coach. Whatever happens with AV and where he goes, in ways he will be missed. http://video.canucks.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=6&id=242273&cmpid=embed-share-video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6Mwn86nnCs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiZs3Psjz-o Regardless with happens with Alain Vigneault.....I want to say thanks for Coach V for all he has done here!

Snake Doctor Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Favorite coach of all time, I liked him as much as Pat Quinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCammer Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Best coach we have ever had bar none. Big part of the reason we have seen the best days of the franchise under his tenure. (Team Personnel didn't hurt either). Still definitely time to bring in a new voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
406281dylan Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 He is a great coach, I have a ton of respect for him... I really hope the Canucks do not go with Jaque Martin or else they will never win a cup, with his attrocius defensive boring style hockey. I think with either boucher or Carbo.

-DLC- Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Casualty of the bad officiating as far as I'm concerned. Sad...I really liked his demeanor and how he interacted with his crew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Yes AV has a good record but still doesn't mean he is the best coach ever, he has coached behind the best players the Canucks have ever had, that has a lot to do with his success. I am very glad he is gone, his defensive style was garbage, it might work for a team like Nashville who isn't as offensively talented, but the Canucks are and they have needed a more offensive coach for a while now. Just really hope MG goes after a more offensively minded coach then another defensive coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
